Description

When surefire-maven-plugin runs tests with the JPMS it constructs module path only from modules required by compiled module (reading its descriptor from file target/classes/module-info.class). Other jars will be used in class path even they are modular (with module-info.class). 

It seems that plugin should include all modular jars to module path or there should be an option to configure module path.

For example:

 

<additionalModules>
    <additionalModule>net.bytebuddy</additionalModule>
    <additionalModule>net.bytebuddy.agent</additionalModule>
</additionalModules>

 

Attached patch contains implementation of "additionalModules" configuration property.
